Countdown until it turns out that everybody associated with any competition to Musk's companies just so happens to be a criminal Trump siccs his DOJ after: 5... 4...

The Onion writers: "Let's go with this one, the real picks are too over the top."

Kirk being played by Chris Pineapple.

No opinion on the matter at hand, I'm just throwing out there that saving a woman's life when she's bleeding out due to lethal complications in her pregnancy is illegal until the last second in many states (let's see how Project 2025 will impact that in the future). Appointing the kind of special counsel that has been perfectly normal and legal since like forever? Illegal the moment he investigates Trump. Doing crimes? Illegal. Doing crimes as president? Immune, according to Trump's Supreme court sock puppets..

What's legal and illegal only depends on how many judges you've bought these days.

PS: Oh and all that brazen bribery shit that would get any other official not just fired, but straight up locked up? Perfectly legal but only if you're a Supreme Court judge. Guess who got to decide that? Go have a cookie if your guess was the very people accepting the bribes.

Also having been born into generational wealth and exploiting the finance system - that's the most famous rich-people-hobby.

Opposing price gouging alone would be a step that aims to prevent corporations from conspiring to drive costs up at will for everybody who doesn't profit off price-gouging. Compare and contrast that to Trump's biggest achievements, massive tax cuts for the ultra-rich and getting his cronies the commission to build a tiny fragment of a wall that Mexico yet has to pay for, and everybody who's not rich enough to own a TV station should be on her side.

Huh. Looks like I read that differently than others here: I thought for sure the family man (who cheated on all his consecutive wives), who loves his neigbour (unless they're non-white, non-rich or non-straight), who would never commit crimes (unless he felt like it and could get away with it by buying judges and winning elections), etc etc was the one crushing actual christian values.

I feel like this picture would benefit from putting all the steamrolled values there in quotation marks.

Be honest: you claim that Harris offers no economic relief because you yourself never bothered to look up her actual policies and you've been told that she has none. It's wild to even compare anything she's proposed to Trump's economic policies and conclude that she offers the general populace less when all Trump has done is to massively shift wealth from the bottom to the top and will most likely continue to do just that.

That the electorate has been primed to applaud fascistic tendencies as long as they are not called "fascist" by a 24/7 deluge of propaganda networks. The caricature of Harris painted in a phalanx of right-wing disinformation channels looks worse than the picture they painted of Trump. Reality has not had as much impact on this election as one would hope.

Ask Fox News, they will do their best to give you a fair and balanced assessment of her policies and-

sorry, couldn't get through that sentence with a straight face.

Honestly, the voters voted in a way that made sense, given the information they had, which was either nothing - complete and utter lethargy, or a hyper-partisan distortion of reality reinforced by a multi-billion dollar propaganda industry backed by, among many others, the literally richest man on the planet in addition to an entire network of propaganda stations blasting disinformation 24/7. The voters being wrong is intentional and has been in the making for decades.

"The things we said we're gonna do? We're doing them."

:O

Pour one out for all the people drilled into being ultra-gullible when it comes to Fox&Co-Conspirators and completely immunised to viewpoints that contradict the propaganda machine. Would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

That's cringe.

Remember when the US and fascists were on opposing teams?

Based on what?

Well, Trump is obviously the country, so loving your country means giving him a pass for every one of his failures as long as he blames the other side and also blindly obeying and defending each and every one of his self-serving orders.

You know, just regular patriotic stuff.

I wonder what that perfectly censored word is.

1. Not true at all. Vile lies spread by the Democrats.
2. Okay, maybe it is true, but it's actually a good thing.
3. Okay, maybe the results are catastrophic, but it's actually the Democrats' fault. The solution is higher tariffs.
